AIM　To develop a sensitive, specific and reliable reversed-phase high performance liquid chromatographic method(RP-HPLC) to determine the total and unbound(free) concentrations in human plasma of amitriptyline and its major metabolite, nortriptyline. METHODS The assay involved a simple extraction procedure. The mobile phase consisted of acetonitrile and distilled water(30∶70, V/V), containing triethylamine(0.5%) and orthophosphoric acid(0.3%), pH 3.1. Separation was achieved on the C18 ODS column and the effluent was measured for UV absorption at 240 nm. RESULTS　The calibration curves were linear in the range of 4～400 μg*L-1 for total concentration, and in the range of 4～64 μg*L-1 for free concentration for both amitriptyline and nortriptyline. The lowest limits of detection were 4 μg*L-1 for both compounds. The absolute recovery rates were 102.0%±3.77% for amitriptyline and 99.3%±7.13% for nortriptyline. The precision values(RSD) of intra-day and inter-day for both amitriptyline and for nortriptyline were determined to be <5%, and <8%, respectively. The method was applied to determine the total and free concentrations in plasma of the healthy volunteers after a single oral dose of 50 mg amitriptyline. CONCLUSION　The assay was simple, repid, highly selective and sensitive. It is suitable for the routine analysis of total and free drug concentrations in plasma using readily available instruments with lower cost.

Objective This study aimed to establish the leukemia mouse model by using EL4/DsRed cell line expressing red fluorescent protein (DsRed) and to evaluate the model. Methods After total body irradiation with X-ray of 7.0 Gy, C57BL/6 mice were inoculated 5×106 bone marrow cells mixed different numbers of EL4/DsRed cells via tail vein. The model was evaluated by flow cytometry (FCM), reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR), and histopathology. Results The incidence of leukemia was 100 %. The presence of EL4/DsRed cells was found in liver, spleen, bone marrow and peripheral blood of recipients by FCM two weeks after transplantation. Pathological section revealed that all recipients had several organs infiltration apparently. With the increase in the number of inoculated tumor cells, the survival time of recipients was reduced and the infiltration of leukemia cells in organs was more serious. Conclusion Mouse leukemia model was successfully established when C57BL/6 mouse was intravenously transplanted with ≥5×102 EL4/DsRed cells. The model could be employed usefully in the future research such as the pathogenesis of leukemia and minimal residual disease (MRD).

BACKGROUND:Shengji Yuhong col agen showed good curative effect of promoting angiogenesis and tissue healing compared with Shengji Yuhong Gao and col agen alone or gelatin alone.
OBJECTIVE:To explore the curative effect and mechanism of subcutaneous implantation of Shengji Yuhong col agen in rabbits in promoting angiogenesis and repair.
METHODS:Shengji Yuhong col agen as the experimental group and collagen as the control group was implanted inside the rabbit subcutaneous pockets of the back of New Zealand rabbits. The implanted samples and
surrounding tissues were obtained at 3, 7, 14, 28 and 56 days fol owing surgery. Pathological sections were made and the repair of surrounding tissue was observed. Hemoglobin levels in col agen were measured.
Immunofluorescence and CD34 dyeing marking method were utilized to observe capil ary angiogenesis. Western blot assay was employed to examine vascular endothelial growth factor and angiogenin-1 expression.
Immunohistochemistry was used to observe the secretion of typeⅠ and Ⅲ col agen on the surrounding tissues.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The experimental group showed increased subcutaneous vascularization. There were reduced inflammatory exudation, granulation tissue hyperplasia, and mature fiber connective tissue at 28 days.
Angiogenesis and hemoglobin contents were greater in the experimental group than in the control group (P<0.05 or P<0.01). At 3 and 7 days fol owing surgery, vascular endothelial growth factor and angiogenin-1 expression was greater in the experimental group than that in the control group (P<0.05 or P<0.01). The secretion of type Ⅰ col agen was
identical between the experimental and control groups. However, the secretion of type Ⅲ col agen was higher in the experimental group than in the control group at 28 and 56 days (P<0.05), and the proportion of type Ⅰ and Ⅲ
col agen was lower in the experimental group than in the control group at 28 and 56 days (P<0.01). These suggested that Shengji Yuhong col agen can significantly promote angiogenesis in the surrounding tissues with the possible
mechanisms of adjusting the protein expression of vascular endothelial growth factor and angiogenin-1. At the same time, it has the function of regulating col agen formation with better ratio of typeⅠ and type Ⅲ col agen to acquire higher
quality of wound healing with reduced scar formation.

Objective To evaluate the effects of Chuanglingye decoction on angiogenesis and wound healing. Methods With a series of dosages of Chuanglingye decoction, their optimal effects of angiogenesis were searched for through the chicken embryo allantois membrane model(CAM). The vascular endothelial cell proliferation experiment (MTT) and the migration assay were used for the detection of effects. The gauze loading with Chuanglingye decoction of 0.2 ml as the experimental group and with saline of 0.2ml as the control group were applied on the total skin mechanical round wound of 1.5cm diameter and changed every other day. The sizes of area were detected on the day of 0,3,7,14 and 28 as well as the scores of inflammatory response, contains of TNF-αand Il-6 were detected on the day of 3 and 7. Results The CAM experiments showed that the angiogenic effects of 0.2 ml and 0.3 ml dosage of the Chuanglingye group were significantly lower than those of the control group(P<0.05). The 0.2 ml dosage of Chuanglingye decoction was chosen for the further experiment. The HUVEC proliferation rate of the experimental group decreased 21%, as compared with the results of control group. The cell migration movement of 12 hours, 24 hours in the experimental group were significantly lower than those in the control group. For theanimal experiments, the area sizes of the wound were similar in the experimental and control group without any significant differences. The scores of inflammatory response and contains of TNF-α(768±107)ng/L,(380±47)ng/L and Il-6(664±133)ng/L,(363±43)ng/L in the experimental group were significant decreased than those of the control group on the day of 3(958± 140)ng/L,(2215±314)ng/Land 7(512±62)ng/L,(1562±174)ng/L. Conclusion It showed that Chuanglingye decoction had negative effects on vascular endothelial cell migration and proliferation and thus inhibiting angiogenesis. These effects did not infer the process of the wound healing due to its ameliorating the inflammatory response which may be a help to wound healing.

The repair of bone defects poses a great challenge for reconstructive surgeons. Although the development of tissue engineering has exhibited promise in replacing damaged bone, the fabrication of large constructs with functional blood vessels remains an obstacle. From the orthopedic surgeon's point of view, the generation of axially vascularized bone, which can anastomose with the recipient vessel, might be a solution to this medical problem. In this study, we aimed to prefabricate an axially vascularized bone by combining a β-TCP scaffold, arteriovenous loop (AVL), and cell sheet in a bioreactor in vivo. Twelve rabbits were randomly allocated into two groups: the experimental group (presence of AVL) and the control group (absence of AVL). The constructs were explanted at 8 weeks postoperatively. The histomorphometric results showed 42.8±5.9% of the bone area in the AVL group and 26.6±3.5% in the control group. Similarly, vessel analysis revealed the average vessel density in the AVL group (12.5±3.3) was significantly more than that in the control group (6.1±1.5, p<0.05). Our research indicated that the combination of a β-TCP scaffold, AVL and cell sheet might engineer vascularized bone. This prefabrication strategy might facilitate clinical translation of bone tissue engineering in reconstructing large bone defects.
